We have delivered a MAXRUNTIME parameter to scheduled administrative commands in TSM 7.1.1. This would work and apply for REPLICATION NODE operations. It will cancel the replication after it exceeds the MAXRUNTIME for the schedule operation. Essentially we provide auto-cancel capability through this. If they used it, they would see a message such as:
9/16/2014 13:40:34 ANR3643W Process 14 for Replicate Node exceeded the maximum allowed running time.
Thank you for submitting this request. We apologize for our delayed response. We are discussing this item with our product teams and will provide an update after such discussions are complete.
